Rural NC Judge Sends Potential Juror to Jail for Refusing Mask

Rural North Carolina Judge Sends Potential Juror to Jail - With No Bond - For Refusing to Wear Mask

Judge Gilchrist was not wearing a mask while holding Hahn in contempt, and there was no mask mandate at the Harnett County Jail. So what, exactly, was the point of him holding Hahn in contempt of court and putting his child at risk?

Do as I say, not as I do

Liberals love to enforce laws, rules and policies on everyone other than themselves. You know, hair salons, French restaurants, vacation spots, etc

is there any legal recourse for a victim of such an abuse of the bully pulpit?

Well it is the South and the entire country and beyond seem to know about this incident, maybe not what he might hope for. Maybe since he’s a Judge he can change his name but probably should be careful eating out in Harnett County.

As they say “ Bless his little heart”…

Once again, George Orwell is correct. "Some of us are more equal than others."

There's a line from an old Dixie Chicks song about a feller named 'Earl' who...

"turned out to be a missing person that nobody missed at all."
Seems appropriate here.
